Message from the MVARA President:
I want to personally thank everyone who came out to the 2026 MVARA Spring Fever Swap Meet, held on Saturday, March 7th, from 8am-Noon, at the Holmen American Legion.
If you attended, donated items to sell, helped with setup and teardown, worked the admission table, sales during the event, worked the bus display, helped with VE testing, or were a part of organizing the event, you all are greatly appreciated.
It was great to watch the MVARA team come together and make this happen. We’re continuing to build on our success with this event, and are already talking on how to make it even better for the attendees of next year’s swap meet.
73, Craig N9ETD MVARA President
Message from the MVARA Swap Meet Co-Chairs:
We would like to also say THANK YOU — truly — for stepping up and making this year’s MVARA Spring Fever Swap Meet a success. We’re incredibly grateful to be part of a club filled with people who show up, pitch in, and make things happen. Your time, energy, and willingness to help are what keep our events running smoothly and our community thriving.
As we look ahead to next year, most are dreaming even bigger. A larger, more exciting swap meet means more moving parts — and that takes dedication and as much help as we can get. We’ll need to think outside the box to make the event one that no ham wants to miss.
Whether it’s creative ideas, bold outreach, or new ways to engage attendees, we welcome your input and enthusiasm. Let’s keep building something special together.
With gratitude,
Kelley & Steve
